MENZI
Wenzy forward. I’ve been thinking about this whole situation the whole night. I don’t know why did she tell that girl my business.
I see her walking towards the car . I make a space for her. She gets in .
Me : who was that ?
She giggles, I regret bringing her here . Now these men were taking chances.
Her : he said he’s a manager .
Me : what did you say ?
All I know is that she was giggling like a baby seeing a candy .
Her : Nothing , I was just laughing at his stupid jokes .
I shook my head. She better stay away from boys .
Me : you better stay away from boys Wenzy.
Her : I have a female crush, that should tell you something.
The same crush that wants to carry my child?
Me : talking about your crush , why did you tell her my business?
She looks at me frowning.
Her : what are you talking about?
Me : don’t act like a fool , you know what I’m talking about. That girl came into my room . She said she wants to be my surrogate.
She looks at me shocked .
Her : you’re joking right?
Me : I’m not joking.
She groans.
Her : but why ?
Me : I don’t know, maybe she likes me.
I side eye her , she rolls her eye .
Me : Sambulo please drive .
Sambulo is my driver . I need to sleep now ..
Wenzy : I heard talking with the phone yesterday. I think she needs money .
Maybe .. it makes sense. She was shaking . She looked like she was nervous.
Me : maybe you’re right .
Her : what did you say to her ?
Me : I didn’t say anything, I was shocked but she left her number .
Her : are you ok with her being your surrogate ?
Me : she’s very beautiful . In Traditional surrogacy, she’ll give me a beautiful daughter or son .
She looks at me with a smile .
Her : so , you wants a daughter?
Me : I want a child.
She nods. We drops her off at the parent’s place. I hate it when I have to spend a night in my parent’s place.
When I get in my place. There’s an aroma from the kitchen. Don’t tell me this girl is back .
Her : hey , you’re back?
Me : hello , how did you get here ?
Her : I cooked.
Me : I hired a surrogate.
She raises her head and looks at me .
Her : wow !
Me : I’m sorry, I didn’t think you’ll come back.
She nods .
Her : at least I won’t have to carry your child by force.
I raises my head and looks at her . Ohhh , it’s like that now ?
Let me call that girl . This one is disrespectful.
Me : let me take a shower.
She nods , I walks away .
